Bee City Brandon is leading an inspiring transformation at Eleanor Kidd Park, revitalizing the once-beloved garden into a thriving prairie pollinator habitat. After devastating floods left the park derelict, volunteers have dedicated over 400 hours in 2024 to restoring its natural beauty, planting over 1,000 native wildflowers and grasses. With the support of Brandon University’s greenhouse and local supplier Skinner Native Seeds, this project aims to create a sustainable haven for bees, butterflies, and other essential pollinators. The initiative not only enhances biodiversity but also serves as a living example of drought-resistant native plants that can thrive in the Canadian prairies with minimal maintenance.
Looking ahead, Bee City Brandon will continue planting native species in 2025 and invites community members to get involved by assisting with planting, weeding, and watering. This effort is more than ecological restoration—it is a powerful act of community healing, reclaiming a lost greenspace and bringing new life to an area once devastated by flooding. By fostering a pollinator-friendly environment, the project will benefit Brandon’s many private and community gardens while showcasing the resilience of nature and the power of collective action. Volunteers and supporters are encouraged to stay updated via @BeeCityBrandon on social media for future opportunities to contribute.
